The Rock Island Clubs Failure to
Hit the Dubuques Pitchers Yes
terdays Game Other Ball InteIli-
gence.
The Rock Island ball club suffered
more severe defeat at the hands of the
Dubuque club yesterday than was the
case on the previous day. The clear fact
of the matter was that the Rock Island
boys came against much oil Ter and
vastly superior nine on their own grounds,
and the club from this city did not real
ize it until the game had commenced and
then they became badly frightened and
| ratified and couldn't play ball little bit.
in the first place they were utterly unable
TO hit the ball, which is very essential
point in club playing to win. But they
could not get on to Dubuque's twirler.
He psralyzed them with fear of him and
they lost their self possession and self
confidence and simply famed the air. In
the field they were equally as much at the
mercy of the Key City nine. Browner
pitched well, but if man got to first he
was sure to get home, for Crowley made
bungling work of getting the ball to second
and Scherer fumbled it aftcrhe got it there
On the first day no less than seventeen
errors were marked up against the
Rock Islands. The Dubuque bat
terry for the first dav was composed of
Keas. pitcher and Drane catcher For
yesterdays game Cooper pitched while
TRULY and Stevens were the Rock Island
battery, but the Dubuques were again
victorious. this time by the score of Is
to 1. The Rock Islands were totally I'M
able to do anything with the Dubuque
mans pitching. Even TRULY and Stevens
were puzzled and neither made hits
However the Rock Islands should have
kept the score down lower There may
have been excuse for failing to win, but
none for being so Overwhelmingly
knocked out. The Rock Island boys
were away from home and the costly
errors made by Grimes and Rispen, too,
who is generally good player, were suffi-
Gent to discourage the other play ers.
Tolliver played well though not without
errors He made the only run Sunday
while Olsen achieved the distinction yester
day. The Kid" did well in the pitcher S
box, but was not properly supported.
The statement that the Dubuques had
imported players is not true. The regu-
lar nine which has been IN existence
played and Rock Island was defeated by
superior playing on the part of the other
side. Manager Munger himself makes
this acknowledgement
